Roger Dale Olson

Roger Dale Olson, age 76 of Wyoming, MI, passed away on July 30, 2026. Born on March 24, 1950, in Cadillac, MI, Roger lived a life defined by dedication, immense humor, and love for his family and friends.

Raised in Wyoming, Roger carried with him a deep appreciation for his Michigan roots throughout his life as a proud Wolverines, Tigers, Red Wings, and Lions fan. His favorite pastimes included fishing, hunting, and golf. He proudly owned and operated Olson Construction and many of his pole barns are scattered across West Michigan. He could always be seen with his signature mustache, aviator sunglasses, shorts, and a t-shirt sporting one of his favorite sports team logos.

Above all else, Roger placed his faith in God. He found strength, hope, and comfort in his relationship with the Lord, and that faith guided him through both life's joys and its challenges. His family takes comfort in knowing that he is now at peace, welcomed into the loving arms of his Savior, and reunited with those who went before him.

Roger was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, brother, uncle, and friend. His greatest joy came from spending time with his family, sharing stories, and creating memories that will be cherished for generations.

He is survived by his incredible wife, Marcia; son, Daniel Olson; daughter, Kimberly (Matthew) Haik; daughter-in-law, Wendy Olson; sisters Carol (Bob) DeWitt and Tammy (Scott) Bravata; brothers Rocky (Kate) Olson and Richard (Holly) Marshall; sister-in-law, Marion Olson; grandchildren Justine Olson, Kennedie (Noah) Reynolds, Madison (George Agon) Olson, Jaylan (Eury) Gonzalez, Hayden (McKenna Bennett) Olson, Ella Haik, Baleigh Olson, Stacey (Marcus) Martinez; and his five great-grandsons Charles and Louis Agon, Adrian and Alex Gonzalez, Augustin Reynolds, and another great-grandchild on the way; many nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends. He was preceded in death by his son, Rodney Olson; father, Albert Olson; mother, Alice Olson; stepmother, June Olson and brother, Rick Olson.

Though our hearts are heavy with loss, we find comfort in knowing that Roger is at peace and no longer in pain. His unwavering faith assures us that this is not goodbye, but until we meet again. His spirit will remain in our hearts forever.
